Answer:

63.7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

half the base is 9 inches, so the equal legs are each

L = √(9² +21²) = 22.8473...

Perimeter  = 2(22.8473) + 18 = 63.6946... ≈ 63.7 inches.

IQs as measured by the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale are approximately Normal with mean 100 and standard deviation 15. About
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

1 standard deviation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

IQs as measured by the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale are approximately Normal with:

Mean = 100

Standard deviation = 15

About 84% of people will have IQs below 115 because:

84% = 0.84

From z - table, 0.84 corresponds to a z- score of about 0.995

0.995 = 1. 00

The z-score gives the number of standard deviations by which a raw score is above or below the average or mean value.

Raw score = 115

Mean = 100

Standard deviation (sd) = 15

Mean + number of sd's

100 + 1(sd)

100 + 1(15) = 100 + 15 = 115

How much water should be added to 3 gallons of pure acid in order to obtain the 15% acid solution? HELP DUE BY TOMMOROW MORNING
Pani-rosa [81]
3 gallons of acid = 100% concentration acid
? (water+acid) gallons = 15 concentration acid

Note: Every gallon of water added reduces the percentage concentration of acid. Therefore, the relationship is inverse proportionality.

Solution:

Total number of gallons (water+acid) = (3*100)/15 = 20 gallons
Therefore, gallons of water = 20-3 = 17 gallons

2x(8+7)-6/2x(9-3) evaluate
Katarina [22]
Ok so assuming that the 'x' means multiply and not 'x' as in placeolder we do

PEMDAS
parenthaseees
exponents
multipilcation or division
additon or subtraction

parethasees simplify first
(8+7)=15


(9-3)=6

now we have
2x(15)-6/2x(6)
multiply
2x15=30

6/2x6=36/2=18

now we have
30-18
